Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I started to notice an odd smell in the vehicle and noticed a lack of coolant in the reservoir tank. after a few weeks i realized there was coolant accumulating on the passenger side floorwell. my vehicle is at 53,500 miles and was diagnosed by the dealer as having a "heater core failure." the estimate they gave is $1,300 to repair. i cannot afford it so it looks like my vehicle will be garaged until a recall is issued. *ak
